I stayed one night and all was fine. The room was beautiful, the Irish Breakfast was very good and it was located near the center of the city (10 minutes). The owners were very friendly. They gave me some useful informations about the city and provided me a disc to park my car without paying. I recommend this place absolutely.

I selected this establishment based on other travellers' reviews and I was not disappointed. My room was warm (yes, the heat was on!), roomy, comfortable and clean and the innkeepers were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Coffee and tea-making items were supplied in my room, and there was plenty of hot water for the shower. Each morning a basic, but very... More

We arrived late when we finally got into Cork Ireland, and Lorraine did not even blink an eye at it. She welcomed us with such a friendly atmosphere and got us quickly settled in our very spacious room. She showed us a map and where to go eat, gave us a coupon for a 2 for 1 meal at a... More

We were in room 3 and looked out at the train station so we were a little concerned about noise in the morning but we... More

It was my recent pleasure to stay at this welcoming B & B, which I found homely, good value for money, with a close proximity to transport links. The owners Lorraine and John were very amiable and only too pleased to share their local knowledge. They will also provide useful information regarding onward travel and locations. Each morning I enjoyed... More

Travelling on a budget to Cork, we stayed at this lovely B&B. I must admit, I was a bit scepticale when we first arrived but was amazed by how big and spacious the rooms were. Everything was very clean and comfortable. As we were 2 girls and 1 guy, we were given a family room which were a room with... More

Spent a night there with my mom. It was great. I forgot some clothes there, and the owners went through great effort to mail my belongings back to me. Great location and walking distance to all of Cork. Loved Breakfast. The woman was nice and genuine

We arrived to Kent House in early November for a 2 night stay, since they accepted the travel vouchers we had from B&B Ireland. I found a summary of the place in my Rough Guide Ireland book and the description seemed interesting enough to look into. It wrote that this was a Victorian era guesthouse with a warm, receptive couple... More

Kent House is not only ideally located to explore Cork city but the owners, Lorraine and John, open their home and make your stay really special. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable and the morning breakfast delicious. Proximity to the town, train and bus station was a wonderful benefit. Looking forward to a return journey. Lorraine and John, thank... More
